“Yummy!” My sister Indi said with a laugh, quickly stealing a candy.
“That's enough, Indi! I need those for my sheep!”
“Do real sheep eat these?”
“They're just for making the cupcakes look 3!” I laughed too.
Soon, Indi and my brother Tex joined in. They 4 so many candies that their cupcakes looked more like strange animals than my sheep.

“Help won't come for at least an hour,” Mum said, sounding 9.
“Now we'll 10 the whole party!” Tex complained.
